Hi, I am planning to build a website, my audiences are only based in Malaysia.
Should I use local hosting or global hosting?
Which would you recommend?
I want the fastest load speed and the lowest latency.

It depends on the usage.
However, if you mentioned that your audiences are based in Malaysia, its the best if you use local hosting at the moment.
If you're thinking to expand later on, you might consider using Content Delivery Network (CDN) to reach global audience.
There are several hosting that are based locally (Data Center in Malaysia/Singapore).
Every hosting has their own pros and cons, depends on your budget and usage.
As for now, Shinjiru, Serverfreak, Exabytes, and Siteground are offering one of the best hosting deals out there in terms of speed and security.
